Most of these apps are meant for shortish messages. If you have kidde pr0n, you encrypt it with serious encryption before you share it. That takes the medium out of the equation. The dark web is where most of it is traded. So, this hole in the messaging apps is really aimed at drug dealers and other petit criminals. Maybe catch some cheating spouses, be able to leverage them. It won't catch many pr0n traders.

Comment Government cant do it, but can use others. (Score 1) 23

The Government can't suck up all the photos, it would be a gross intrusion to your privacy. So, they use a 3rd party. The government can't keep track of all the cell phone calls that you made, instead they require the phone companies to keep a log of them, that they query whenever they want. It is very slimy.

They are looking for a minor criminal, scoop up all the footage, inside homes included, and see who all has been going into those homes. If you are a Cub Scout den mother, your traffic pattern could match that of a pedophile. Maybe they see your teen's friends have been busted for pot smoking. You could be due a visit.

Big H and others make their money from selling letter grades to the highest bidders. Now they don't like it when US News tries to grade THEM. If they don't like the competition, give them a big fat F.
